The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Ganduje, has played down speculations on an opposition merger ahead of the 2027 election, saying it will not work.
Ganduje, who led the APC National Working Committee on a Sallah homage to former President Muhammadu Buhari at his residence in Kaduna State, made the remark while addressing members of the press.
He stated that the APC is not worried as whatever coalition moves are being made is history repeating itself.
“We are not worried at all. This is just history trying to repeat itself. They went on a joint venture, which will not work because from what we have seen, there are just some particles that cannot come together.
“It is a game, and we will not reveal our technicalities on how to handle it, but we assure you, we are equal to the task,” he said.
“We are eyeing other states that will come into our fold. Either the governors themselves will come, or we go for election and defeat them to increase our tally.
“We are comfortable, but we are not resting. We shall continue,” Ganduje added.
